Especially with all those Phillies fans at PNC

I thought the double steal was a gutsy call. Great win.

Yes it was!!!

What a great win ! This team has confidence. Ortiz tomorrow ?

So wonderful to be at the game. Lot of fun.

So wonderful seeing the Pirates score guys with productive outs. Also very cool to see a lady wearing a 22 Cutch Phillies jersey. There was also a guy in what I thought was a dinosaur suit down below me. As luck would have it, he came walking by my car as we were leaving the garage, and he was nice enough to fill me in on what was up.

He was dressed as an alligator, to pay homage to a fan at Citizens who tried to bring in an alligator or something to that effect. His daughter had an alligator hat too.

All the Phillies fans around us were fun to be around. It's something I'd love to experience someday, being a fan of the team with the best record in baseball, but full of anxiety about their team.

Must have been a great game.

I only missed the first two innings. I see bucs 60 71 79 posted at 3:36- he
must have peed the bed.

That caused quite a stir when it happened. The guy tried to bring in a 5/6 foot gator claiming it was a support/service pet, but that didn't get anywhere. I think he filed a lawsuit, but it didn't go anywhere, and the story faded.
Sadly, just a couple months ago, someone stole his alligator. https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/critter ... n/3845706/

OK you know I have trouble watching the Burgh against any Phil. team. I tried but those 3 runs top of first sent me running. I could not sleep wondering if we made a comeback and won. When I saw that score I was up till 5. Fired me up and I enjoyed the highlights.

additional comments about the game
Biggest crowd at PNC since 2015- 39,000 plus.
When is the last time you saw a guy get 3 RBI's without
getting a hit. Tellez Sacrifice Fly on three different occasions.
Cruz getting a hit and driving in the tying run in the the 9th
off a tough Lefty.

Cont.
When Cruz was called out trying to go to third on a fly to
the outfield, he was initially called safe. The call was reversed when
it showed he was tagged out when the glove brushed his hair. Time to get
rid of the locks.
Perez has not fared well since he came back. Falter coming back soon and eventually
Jones returning, he should be going to the Pen.
